Why do we need this?

We don't need this.

We don't... big corpo Microsoft does.

The idea is moderately appealing. I've definitely tried to find "that one thing that mentioned that other thing I saw 2 weeks ago" before.

But outside of Facebook (and TikTok/tencent/whoever), Microsoft is right up there with companies I wouldn't consider letting anywhere near it. And the complete absence of any concept of security in their first version would have completely disqualified it from being trustworthy even without their awful track record. You don't do something, then "add security" and get acceptable results.

Gretchen, stop trying to make “~~fetch~~Recall” happen. It’s not going to happen.

Microsoft has hatched a plan to make tons of money off of this.

How do I know? It is Microsoft. They don't do anything unless they have planned it all out and run the math. Even with some PR hits it will still be a net positive in income.
